Thank you Juliekate for sharing your story and thanks to everyone for their wonderful insights and contributions to this thread. I feel by reading everyone's posts about The Sun and Judgment my understanding of these cards have been enriched.
A question for you Juliekate: What deck did you use for this reading?
If this is a deck that follows the Rider-Waite-Smith theme then The Sun card probably has sunflowers on it. Although quite tertiary to other interpretations suggested earlier of The Sun sunflowers are a flower that will actually physically move throughout the day to follow the sun by bending its stem.
I do not know why, but something about receiving The Sun card three times in a row in three different one-card spreads reminds me of the sunflowers moving, trying to catch as much of the potent sun’s radiance as possible. Whether this seeking of the sun’s radiance represents seeing and experiencing the truth about your relationship, experiencing illumination via openness and communication, or perhaps getting as much illumination about the situation to the point you know the truth beyond a doubt I am uncertain.
To come into contact with meaning for such an image of movement that strings receiving the same card three times in a row for those questions is one of those things I believe one has to sit with, ponder, process, and generate one's own meaning for one's own Self. Just as a sunflower takes solar energy to nurture and build itself into something greater think of the truth you have learned about your relationship and about your self as resources (i.e., solar energy) to help you nurture, heal, and build something even better for your Self. Perhaps to rebirth this aspect of your life into something more refined and renewed as symbolized by the child in the card. Although the experience has been painful this process of developing and generating meaning has the opportunity to empower you to better know your Self and create something better for yourself that can bring you happiness and joy.
